Why are stories important? How have they shaped our thinking and view of the world? Come follow my stories and see what we have in common. Ducks In My Pool, is about a family of ducks who chose our backyard as a safe place to build their nest. For over ten years ducklings have hatched and swam in our pool. I realized God gave me a metaphor through the ducks to show His love and safety as I trust in Him.

My Favorite Christmas Decoration Is My Nativity Scene

My favorite Christmas Decoration is my nativity scene I made thirty years ago. I painted the figures creamy ivory and sprayed them gold flex. Each year when I get Mary and Joseph out of the box I think its a miracle not one is broken. I place gold hay to remind me Jesus was born in a manger. I light a candle in the middle to say Jesus is the way, the truth, and the light.

His Dwelling Place

God loved me so much He gave me a visual picture of His safety and faithfulness as I watched ducklings huddling under their mother. He doesn't want us to forget He is there for us. He needs us to stay under His wings. He'll do the rest.

Psalm 91:4 He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge.

He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty, I will say of the Lord, "He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.
